Being a creative thinker is one of the attributes most sought-after by employers. We want children that can come up with new ideas – whether they are finding different solutions to a maths problem, composing a piece of music to reflect a mood or emotion, or deciding on the best tactic to use to put the ball in the hoop. Creative thinkers have open minds and are free thinkers and so they are able to express their thinking in different ways, producing new ideas or concepts.
World Mental Health Day
October 10
World Mental Health Day aims to raise awareness about mental health around the world and to mobilise efforts to support those experiencing mental health issues. Every year since 2013, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has organised a global campaign for World Mental Health Day. The World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH) announced the theme for World Mental Health Day 2024, which is ‘‘It is Time to Prioritize Mental Health in the Workplace’.’ At Nadeen we will be marking this day with activities, discussions, talks and time for personal reflection on what we can do for our own and others’ mental health.
